Onul Chonyok (Tonight~)!!!! I’ll be reviewing a mask from none other than… Tony Moly! :) I got this a few days back and since I wanted to relax yesterday I tested this one out! :D

What made me get this mask is that it has GREEN TEA <3 one of my favorite drinks of all time :) And I know that green tea is really great for the skin!

Green tea catechins are anti-bacterial and can decrease hormone activity. This means green tea is an effective way to control acne, without the unpleasant side effects of benzoyl peroxide-based creams.

 A 2003 study carried out by Dr. Jennifer Gan-Wong of Memorial Medical Center in the Philippines showed that green tea cream was as good as benzoyl peroxide cream in treating acne conditions with fewer side effects.

 The researchers noted the green tea cream seemed to lighten patients’ skin color and improve the overall appearance of their complexion.
